Uniqueness and stability of the recovery of an absorbing obstacle from a knowledge of its scattering resonances
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 July 2007
Abstract
In a previous paper, I investigated the use (for the inverse scattering problem) of the resonant frequencies and the associated eigen far-fields. I showed that the shape of a sound soft obstacle is uniquely determined by a knowledge of one resonant frequency and one associated eigen far-field. Inverse obstacle scattering problems are ill-posed in the sense that a small error in the measurement may imply a large error in the reconstruction. This is contrary to the idea of continuity. I proved that, by adding some a priori information, the reconstruction becomes continuous. More precisely, continuity holds if we assume that the obstacle lies a fixed and known compact set.
The goal of this paper is to extend these results to the case of absorbing obstacles.
